I realise I am stupid and shouldn't have been let loose on PERL in a million years but I need help!!
Can anyone PLEASE help me with a hash sorting problem I am having??
I will be eternally grateful!!!!!!!
I have successfully created a hash containing all the keys and values I want but wish to merely sort the keys into ascending numerical order. Am I doing something wrong with my hash assignment? I cannot quite see why it won't work
See excerpt below
foreach $sentence(@sentences) { <BR>
$total_sentence +=1; <BR>
@words = split(/[^\w'a-zA-Z0-9_'-?]+/,$sentence); <BR>
$Counter =0; <BR>
foreach $word(@words){ <BR>
$Counter+=1; <BR>
} <BR>
$sentence_count{($Counter)}=$sentence_count{($Counter)}+1;<BR>
+
}
<BR>
sort {$a<=>$b} (keys (%sentence_count)); <BR>
print ("\nThere are a total of $total_sentence sentences in this text\
+n"); <BR>
while (($sentence_count,$word_count) = each(%sentence_count)) { <BR>
print ("\nThere are $sentence_count sentences of $word_count words
+\n"); <BR>
} <BR>

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
